Hello, My oldest PROVEN ancestor is Edmond Guthrie b. 12 Aug 1843 in Spartenburg, SC he d. 23 Apr 1916 in Adair County, Oklahoma. He is buried in Mossville Cemetery, Boxley, Newton County, Arkansas. He married Sarah Lucinda Bull, dau of Michael and Kisie Bull. Kisie was supposedly an Indian. Edmond was married before he married Sarah. Their names are Elizabeth Price, Elizabeth Childress, and Mary Reed. Edmond served in the Civil War as a private in Co. D, 3rd Regiment of the Arkansas Calvary (Union). He is listed as living in Arkansas in all Census Reports from 1840-1910. I have been told his parents were Joseph and Susannah "Wood" Guthrie, but I have not been able to prove this yet. Joseph's parents wererederick and Molly "Louallen" Guthrie. All were from Spartenburg, SC. Michele
